Images above show a couple of unglazed electric kiln fired pots I made last year. The one on
the left is inspired by rectangular nanban pots, which are less common than the
round ones. It was also the first time I tried a combination of slab and coil
building to form a bonsai pot (dimensions 20 x 27 x 11 cm). This technique is
used by some Japanese potters to make large bonsai pots. The pot on the right
was my attempt to imitate this slip decoration technique that I’ve seen on some
Chinese pots. This pot is small, about 10 cm in diameter.
